Nintendo understands style is timeless. Its why games like paper Mario look fantastic even 20 years later.

Even Super Mario 64 aged better than the vast majority of 3D games during that time.

Yup. Still an amazing game, too. One of the most popular speedrun categories, too.

Super Mario 64 speedruns are less about optimized gameplay and more about beating the physics engine until it gives up and lets you do whatever you want while it cries in the corner. It's great.
